Homework

Sophomores
Your homework (required), due Wednesday, is to outline the introduction to the Victorian Period. Your outline should follow the standard form (I - A - 1 - a). This will be worth 30 points and is required for everyone. Please do not type. Put your name and date at the top of the page.

Seniors
Find and bring (and read) one credible article discussing the future of education. This could include predictions in the decade or decades. Our goal is to get a sense of the current thinking on the future, including what role technology will serve.

NOTE: Please do not bring the same article as someone else in your class.
